Gentle To The Touch

Decided to make my own tutorial on how to make gif stamps!! Lmk if any wording needs to be changed/updated or if you have any questions :)

I’m very lucky to be in the industry and have creative friends who are willing to help me out but I’ve also had luck just finding other cool people on social media or at conventions or job expos and stuff like that~

Finding like minded people who enjoy the stuff you do I feel like is a great way to find people who will see and enjoy your vision! A lot of the people I’ve worked with are also pokemon or magical girl fans like myself or seek to create stuff for teens and young adults.

As mentioned, most of the folks I worked with are already friends and people I trust. I don’t usually work with people I don’t know even if they offer to help (for several reasons) but sometimes you just meet people you instantly vibe with! Aly Burridge who is my sound designer and captioner sent me a cold email reaching out to ask if she could work on the project. She stated she was a fan of my work, that she went to school for sound, sent her resume and also mentioned that she was queer and wanted to support me as a queer creator. I told her I was interested and we did a small zoom call just for me to meet her! I guess you could consider it an interview but it was more chill than that, but I feel like that helps if you’re worried that someone might be trying to scam you or something. It’s ultimately up to your judgement of character! Aly seemed extremely genuine to me and she turned out to be and im endlessly grateful that she reached out~

I edited/designed the blinkies, but I did not create the character art; @/kianamaiart is the original artist!!!
